The Lost Art of Scripture: Rescuing the Sacred Texts
At a time of intolerance and mutual incomprehension, renowned scholar and TED Prize-winner Karen Armstrong's latest book, "The Lost Art of Scripture," shines fresh light on the world's major religions to help us build bridges between faiths and rediscover a creative and spiritual engagement with holy texts.
- Karen Armstrong is the author of numerous books on religious affairs, including "The Case for God," "A History of God," "The Battle for God," "Holy War," "Islam," "Buddha" and "The Great Transformation," as well as a memoir, "The Spiral Staircase." Her work has been translated into 45 languages. In 2008, she was awarded the TED Prize and began working with TED on the Charter for Compassion, created online by the general public and crafted by leading thinkers in Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism and Confucianism. The charter was launched globally in the fall of 2009. She is currently an ambassador for the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations.
